General

Perival, the High Seat of the Andoran House Mantear, is a pretty, golden haired boy with blue eyes, shorter than Dyelin. He still has a high voice. He wears a sword that looks much too long for him, and is a little clumsy at handling it (CoT, Ch. 13).

Perival hardly says two words together unless someone draws them out of him, but he seems to know better than Catalyn, Conail and Branlet what he has ridden into (CoT, Ch. 13).

Perival is twelve years old, one year younger than Branlet (KoD, Ch. 17).
